I read about this in the Silence on the Wire by Michal Zalewski. And you don't need a fullblown AI, a good statistical model is enough to make a guess on passwords, and if you have a bunch of probabilities to cut down your search space to a more probable set. And the book is from 2005, so I wouldn't say it is new. https://nostarch.com/silence.htm https://nostarch.com/silence.htm
I even remember reading about how Clifford Stoll recognized the different attackers by "typing rhythm" in Cuckoo's Egg.
